Frequently Asked Questions

An EU Regulation is a binding legislative act that must be applied in its entirety across the European Union. Unlike directives, regulations do not need to be transposed into national law and are directly applicable in all member states. Regulations are used when uniform application across all EU countries is essential.

Regulation 932/2012 covers "Commission Regulation (EU) No 932/2012 of 3 October 2012 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for household tumble driers". This legislation has harmonized European standards (hENs) that provide a presumption of conformity with its essential requirements. There are 5 standards associated with this regulation.

Harmonized standards under 932/2012 are European standards (ENs) developed by CEN, CENELEC, or ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission. When these standards are cited in the Official Journal of the European Union, products manufactured in conformity with them benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of 932/2012, facilitating CE marking and free movement within the European Economic Area.
